I did the taxes and am getting money back for the first time in ever. But need to pay state, although about half of my federal refund. So since we're pinching pennies right now I'm going to go ahead and file federal and wait to file state.
Which I have to remember to finish on Friday.
And I also have to remember tomorrow I have to finish cleaning out the car and get cash from the bank including quarters and wash the car and figure out how to pull up the car seat. Before 9:00. And it's snowing right now. Woes.
Officially too cold to sleep. Powerco says restoration by 2/9 HPF has school on 2-hr. delay. We might just decamp for a month to Hawaii.
... A girl can dream.
Yikes! Sunday is too far away. Maybe not Hawaii, but a hotel room?
Holy crap. They found the Lipinski Strad:

Props to the Milwaukee police, I did not see that coming. (My sister believes Neil Caffrey must have been involved.)
Yeah, Sox, is there any way to get into a hotel for a couple of nights?
Not nearly this severe, but my parents are having their (only) bathroom redone, and it's a good thing the tenant is friendly! They have a working toilet and sink, if no walls, but not a shower, so they came down yesterday to use mine. And since it seems like all that's happened this week is demo, I shudder to think how long it will actually take. Yikes.
ION, there is a team that apparently pulled an all-nighter here last night, and that is just wrong. I know that's how it goes some times in their area, but yikes.
Our taxes have a habit of cancelling each other out, as in we owe to the state what the feds are refunding us or vice versa.
net zero is my goal. I have not even started on mine yet this year. I guess I should get on that.
So while we are getting unexpected snow, it looks like some of California is getting rain. Is it in a much needed area? It seems like the whole state needs it, yes?
The whole state needs it, so yeah.
We need more rain. It was a bit drizzly today. Want rain.
yeah, the map shows it all north, SF to San Jose to Fresno and headed south.
